Meet little Mellow. She is a tiny little girl, and is also a polydactyl. She may look big in pictures but honestly she's very tiny. Not positive about age, but still a kitten. She is one of the dumped Geneva kitties. Very quiet little girl and would benefit from a not so active home. Very sweet as well. She is a little fearful of dogs and may consider applicants with smaller dogs that are not too excitable.
If interested you can fill out an adoption application on our website.
Must have a good vetting record. Please read entire application before filling out.

Dutchess

Miss Dutchess 🐈🐾👑
Very cool cat 🙂. She is such a neat kitty. Lapcat, not yet but could be. She needs time to warm up. Loves attention, no tail petting though 😾. I LOVE how she is starting to trust and coming in to her own personality. She really does have a great personality, considering what she went through she is bound to be untrusting at first.
Young kitty around a year, microchipped, utd on vaccines, fiv/flv tested neg.

Greta

Meet Greta, our 3-5 yo GSD. Isn’t she beautiful? She is a very sweet girl but still skittish. We do not know what her previous life was like but considering she had a rope tied around her neck when found we are certain her life has done a 360! She loves being inside staying nice and warm, and lying on a cushy, plush doggy bed! She does very well with other dogs and ignores cats. Fine with children, although doesn’t pay them much attention yet. She does not seem to want them in her space. She’s learning what toys are and even likes to hoard them in a pile on her doggy bed. She will chew on nylabones and loves treats! We would like Greta to go to a home with gsd experience. She is crate trained and potty trained. She will be ready for adoption to a very patient, experienced family next week after her spay. She has had her vaccinations, is heartworm negative and on prevention. Greta is also microchipped.

Lucy

Hi! My name is Lucy.
The ladies from Paws rescued me and my brother, Scrappy Doo, by live trapping us 3 weeks ago, when a very nice police officer contacted them to let them know he saw us hanging out by a rural county road for 3 or more days. He tried to help us and left us food, but we didn't want to go to him.....we were waiting on our person to come back...but they never did.☹
They say that I am a border collie mix and am 5-6 years old. I weigh 75 pounds, so I guess I should try to trim down a bit.
I love to play, chase and wrestle with Scrappy Doo. I can fetch a ball and enjoy making snow angels!
I'm a smart, affectionate girl and am potty trained. I like being petted, brushed and my foster mom says I am "treated motivated", whatever that means!
I love people, can tolerate cats, have not been around kids while in rescue, and I am not crazy for other dogs, besides Scrappy. But with proper introduction and patience, I think I could learn to adjust to other dogs.
I walk well on a leash but sometimes pull a bit. A fence would be great if you have one!
I would really like to be adopted with my brother, because I love him and we are good dogs, but I understand if that can't happen.
I am spayed, up to date on my rabies and distemper vaccinations, heartworm tested negative and on prevention, microchipped, dewormed and on flea prevention.
My adoption fee is $160. What a great deal for the unconditional love I will give you in return!

Scrappy Doo

Hi! I'm Scrappy Doo.
I was rescued 3 weeks ago by the ladies at Paws, along with my sister, Lucy.
I'm not sure how we ended up along a road, but we were there for at least 3 days, when a nice police officer saw us and fed us. We would not go to him, because we were waiting on our person to come back for us, but they never came back☹. I was sad, but I had my big sister who looked out for me. The ladies put some really good food in traps one night and caught us, and brought home so we would be safe and warm.
I am about a year old. I weigh 54 pounds and I think I am part basset hound. Mixed with something else....but they are unsure what. People think it could be Shepard, mastiff, pit...one lady said I was a "super mutt". I kinda like that...Scrappy Doo "Super Mutt"!😊. I have short legs, a long body, a big head and I am a strong boy!
I love playing, chasing and wrestling with Lucy. I like to stick my nose in the snow and eat it! My foster mom says not to eat the yellow snow though!
I am potty trained, love treats, and love attention! I like to give kisses too!
I do well on a leash, but I might pull sometimes.
I am good with cats but might try to chase them if they run. I've not been around kids since I've been in the rescue, but love people and probably would love little people too. I need time to warm up to other dogs, besides my sister, but I should be okay with that as long as you're patient until I get to know them.
I would love to find a forever home with my sister.🙏 because I really love her. I know my foster mom said there are no guarantees that will happen. I still hope it does! We are both good dogs!
If you have a fence, that would be awesome!
I am neutered, up to date on my rabies and distemper vaccinations, heartworm tested negative and on prevention, microchipped, dewormed and on flea prevention.
My adoption fee is $260. That is a heck of a deal for all the love I will give you in return!

Pandora

Pandora has herpes virus. It only acts up once in a while. It only effects one of her eyes, waters once in a while and gets a little red. It is not contagious to vaccinated cats. Other than that she is perfectly normal and very loving. She will need eye cream when it flares up.She is sweet and likes to be petted, but doesn't always like to be held. She is a good girl and will give lots of love. One of her favorites is she loves to snuggle her nose on you when your sitting down and is very affectionate.
